Review of Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004) by Belén A — 18 Sep 2007
"Metallica: Some kind of monster" is a peculiar documentary on a famous metal rock band intent on recording a new album, something that ends up taking years, and a lot of fights among band members.
Despite the fact that I am not a fan of Metallica, I must say that I enjoyed watching this film. It has plenty of things to interest spectators, as it gives them the opportunity to witness the making of "St Anger" (Metallica's new album) and the dynamics of a strangely dysfunctional band. Of course, I must also mention Metallica's sessions with Phil Towle, a "performance enhancement coach", as one of the highlights of this dvd :).
In my opinion, fans will love this dvd, and people who have barely heard about Metallica will like it too. "Metallica: Some kind of monster" is a very good documentary worth watching, even if it is not the kind of dvd you generally rent.
